Enjoy the delicious flavours of real farmhouse cheese

Dutch Farmhouse Cheese - Light

The Dutch
cheeses come in a variety of different shapes, colours and of course different
tastes. This means you can choose any kind of cheese you like. Some people say
they don’t like cheese, but given the amount of different flavours, this is
almost impossible. In any case, it is nice to explore the various options. You
can go to the supermarket and buy some regular cheese, but you can also try and
find some farmhouse cheese. This type of cheese is made by the Dutch farmers on
their own farm. This means the cheese is homemade, or put in more fitting
terms, it is farm-made. Traditionally, it is the farmer’s wife who makes the
cheese.
She uses her own ideas and recipes to create a one-of-kind type of cheese.
It also depends on the soil and the grass and the way the milk is transformed
into cheese. Each farmhouse cheese is therefore unique. In the Netherlands
there are still around 3000 farms left where farmer’s cheese or Dutch Farmhouse
cheese is made. This means you can choose from a large variety of exclusive
cheeses.

The various sorts of Dutch
Farmhouse cheeses

With 3000
different farms creating their own version of the Dutch Farmhouse cheese, it
might be a bit challenging to find the right type of cheese. But luckily there
are often ways to make life just a bit easier. For instance, if you go to the
website of goudacheeseshop.com, you can find a lot of different Farmer’s
cheeses. They are all presented with a picture and a description of the taste
that you can expect. This is very convenient, because you can compare various
sorts of Farmer’s cheese and once you find the cheese that suits your taste,
you can immediately order it. Since you have so many choices, it might be nice
to get an idea what kind of flavours you can expect when you go for a typical
Dutch Farmers cheese. One option you have, to give an example, is the Farmhouse
matured Gouda cheese. This cheese has been lying in a warehouse to mature for
about 6 months. It is therefore a slightly mature cheese. The cheese is made
with fresh milk from the farm. So unlike cheese from the factory, you know you
will be enjoying real fresh homemade cheese. Other options you have are:

·Farmhouse
cheese Extra matured

·Crumbly
Farmhouse Gouda Cheese

·20+
Farmhouse low fat cheese

If you are
curious, just take a look on the website and see for yourself what all the
options are regarding Farmhouse cheeses.

Cheeses online

When it
comes to online shopping, you don’t immediately think about cheese. But
nowadays more and more products are being sold online. You do not have to worry
about shipping. Cheeses are usually covered by a hard layer and all cheeses are
wrapped in a vacuum package so that it arrives just as fresh as the day it was
packed.

About

GoudaCheeseShop.com is the cheese webshop from the Netherlands. Here you can buy the Gouda cheese from Holland.

For over 35 years, we have been a family firm operating within cheese business. We mainly sell Dutch cheese, and this is what we are good at. We are established in Harderwijk, a town in the heartland of the Netherlands.

Nowadays, Kaashandel Peters has matured into a cheese trader of some stature on the markets of the Flevopolder area. We currently operate with two of our sons in our store, and we are present at twelve local markets in and around the Flevopolder area, using two sales vehicles.

Andre Peters started out at a time when the now-famous Flevopolder had just been reclaimed from the Dutch seabed, and was still being developed. Back in those days, the area was made up of uncultivated land, dotted by the occasional town or village still in their early stages of development, such as Lelystad, Almere-Haven, and Dronten.

Over the years, these locations have developed into fully-fledged villages, and even into cities, where local markets soon started to emerge. Setting out from that position, Kaashandel Peters has managed to become a firmly established name in many a household.

In addition, there have been some recent developments. In 2006, Kaashandel Peters has successfully established a hotel and catering wholesale enterprise, directed at restaurants and hotels in the Harderwijk area. In the summer of 2009, we are setting up our very own web shop, hoping to provide a broad audience in Europe and beyond with our delicious cheeses.

All of our cheese is freshly cut, without any preservatives. Our cheeses are vacuum-packed to make sure you can store it for at least 6 weeks. Subsequently, we pack the cheese into a box with an optional cool/gel pack (depending on destination temperatures) to keep the cheese cool during shipping.
